The duty of all manufacturers and service providers is to
ensure their products and services meet the standards required by
law. The law of product liability deals with the liability of the
manufacturer, wholesaler, or retailer of a product for injuries
resulting from dangerous and defective products. Today, virtually
anyone injured by a defective product can bring an action for damages
against any party in the distribution chain of the product, whether
it be the manufacturer, the wholesaler, the retailer or even the
maker of a component part.
In the event of an insurance claim or civil claim, the role of
an independent failure analysis or expert witness can be crucial
to help assess true liability. The M&P Lab offers a full range
of materials testing and failure analysis services to help determine
the cause of failure of a wide variety of parts, components, and
materials. In addition, our team of in-house experts offers the
specialized expertise to interpret the findings and communicate
results in written reports or oral testimony. |
